If that means you use pirated software once to accomplish that, yeah go for it as long as you leave NO traces on the customer/client machine and you don't do it habitually. If you're like most of the seasoned technicians I know, yeah, you carry some pirated software, who doesn't? What it comes down to in the field and on the job sometimes is you do whatever it takes by whatever means necessary to get the computer running for the customer is the shortest amount of time possible. SOOOOOO, before you go bashing me and running off topic about my post, realize that 90% or better of the people using the software MOST LIKELY don't outright own a legit copy. And anyways, it was obtained freely over the internet. Always got the same answer, "As long as we're not installing it on a computer, it gets the job done the way we need it. I know, i've worked for a few companies and even pointed that out several times. I know tons of companies both locally and nationally that while they won't outright say they own a licensed copy of the software, they're using either ghostcast server or ghost in its DOS form anyway because it gets the job done. Where the software came from to me is completely inconsequential considering it's widely available as just the ghost executable almost everywhere on the internet. Perhaps you might want to stay on topic with your future postings. That was actually pretty obvious, I just felt like pointing it out this time for the benefit of Rad and Pleo, who probably aren't really aware just how much of the discussion here (and it's a lot) is simply about facilitating piracy and not legitimate at all.įunny, i didn't see where my post shouted out that I was trying to pirate the software to begin with. Let me know if I can provide you with any more information on the product that I don't have but seem to be running. I'm old school, I don't use any of the newer symantec ghosting software/suites. To further answer your question, I don't "have" a Symantec product, if you're referring to something like Norton Ghost 9, yes I have that, but i'm using Ghost 11.5 which you say doesn't exist for whatever reason. April 22 2009, so I'm assuming from what you're saying, that's not the product is it? But it IS a fully functional ghost.hmmmmmm. Funny, when i'm in DOS and I run the Ghost /ver it even shows Symantec Ghost 11.5.0 build 2113. Maybe i'm just wrong, but my eyes are deceiving me. Well, it's funny you should say that there is no such product as Ghost 11.5 because that's exactly what my ghost screen in dos is showing me.

Since there is no such product as Ghost 11.5 what Symantec product do you have? There is more than one corporate product which includes the Ghost cloning tools now. Your input is encouraged and welcomed, thanks in advance. I'm used to using Ghost 8.0 (Ghost32) from within a BartPE disk and i'm just trying to improve the process while keeping it as simple as possible. The specific error is "driver constant in memory" and then it just hangs and never pushes forward from there.ĪLSO: Using ghost 11.5, is it somehow able to see/use external usb HDDs without above mentioned usb drivers? I'm so confused. I have tried several different combinations of command switches (/e /o /u) and nothing seems to work.

HOWEVER: when I start the computer and have it boot from said pen drive, it hangs when loading the usbaspi.sys.

USING: Steps and techniques as provided by Shadow in his post regarding the creation of a bootable USB Thumbdrive/Pendrive/Whateveryouwanttocallit drive, XMSDSK to create a ramdrive labeled R:,, and a slight variation of some nifty batch files (mainly for copying dos programs into the ramdrive and running from there), and appropriate dos based USB drivers. Alright all you smart folks out there, here's the one that i've actually gotten a few new grey hairs about.
